Cosmos: A Personal Voyage by Carl Sagan

5.0

2nd reading via Audible: Levar Burton (of Reading Rainbow and Star Trek fame) masterfully narrates this literary gem. He has a great voice and it was a pleasure to the ears. Carl Sagan was a wonderful teacher who radiated an infectious zest and wonder for science. This is a masterwork, Sagans' magnum opus. A lover of science thou are not if thou fingers haven't hovered over the pages of this tome! Sagan's mission was to highlight the importance of critical thinking and to show everyone how magnificent (and fun) the pursuit of knowledge can be. Do yourself a favor and read/listen to this.

Absolutely wonderful. Marvelous. Easily 5 stars. No. Easily a galaxy's worth of stars.

This is Sagan's most influential work. The book/TV series was responsible for influencing generations of scientists. He elegantly explains the workings of our universe, from the molecules living in the subatomic world to the commodious galaxies and everything in between.

An absolute joy to read. Carl Sagan is my hero.
